RZ 101 - Asking "How To" Questions

From my experience, the code option only responds to tab delimiters and drops all others (notably spaces). The "easiest" way to do it is to create the table in notepad using tabs to line everything up.

How about this one I occasionally see on Redszone and haven't quite perfected yet.

1) Quote multiple people's post and reply to both in the same post...

2) Split someone's quote into 2 seperate (or more) sections and reply to what they said point by point.

Anybody help with that?

the first one (by hitting the " piece of paper next to quote on the first post and then quote on the 2nd quote I want to capture....

But I'm not sure how you break someone's quote into sections, unless you do it manually. Is that the only way you can do it?

Breaking it up manually is the way I do it, RL. I'm not sure if there's a better way.

Testing this:

[IMG]C:\Documents and Settings\XXXXXX\My Documents\My Pictures\Buried.jpg[/IMG]

Can't do that...hmmm.

Help please.

Here's what I did. I went to My pictures on my PC. I clicked on a picture in My Pictures and dragged it onto a internet window. The internet window opened and I dropped the picture in that window. I was thinking if I did that I could add the image as a [IMG] instead of having to add it as an attachment. Doesn't seem to work as the path the internet window is from my desktop and more specifically, the My Pictures folder. Is there a way to accomplish this, so that I can add the image through the [IMG] tag instead of attaching it?

You can only use the IMG tag with a web address.

If you want to add a picture from your hard drive, click on "Manage Attachments" underneath the posting field (under Additional Options). You will be able to add attachments there.

If you don't want to post it through an attachment, you need to find a way to upload it online first. Then you can use the IMG tag.

Thanks paint. I knew I could add it as an attachment, and know how to add attachments, I just wasn't sure if I could somehow move that picture to an internet window and then add it as an IMG instead of an attachment. The bolded line above tells me that is not possible.

Breaking it up is hard to do period.

Whoops...wrong thread ... see you later...

This thread should be a sticky. Very helpful to a dolt like myself.

We really oughta archive this.

Oh, and can you search for threads about Adam Dunn striking out too much? I figure that is pretty complicated.;)

At the top of this page (and every page) there is a link to the search fields. You can either type in "Adam Dunn strikeout" in the search field there, or go to the advanced search field and narrow your search more specifically to what you are looking for (only Old Red Guard threads between Jan 1, 2005-March 12, 2005, for example). Then, just hit search and it will show you results.
